PRESS RELEASE

Adrian Hernandez, local business owner, professional singer with the Houston Grand Opera, and former high school English teacher, announced on Friday (Feb. 27) his run for Pearland City Council Position Number 2. The position is currently held by Scott Sherman until May.

As the only business owner in the running, Hernandez has a unique direct conduit to the community. For the past seven years his business, The Drink Station, served as art space for Pearland artists of various mediums, a venue for the performing arts to the students of all three local high schools and Manvel HS, and offered financial support to local church groups, youth organizations and charities.

A small business advocate, he speaks the language of our town’s small business community. “I know the concerns and I know the things that need to be fixed in order to help streamline processes which will support our small business owners,” Hernandez said.

Hernandez believes small businesses are the backbone of our economy, offering variety and choices to our residents, by reflecting the local taste.

Small businesses offer innovation on a local level born of local concerns, which meet local needs. These innovative business owners and residents will be given a voice through Adrian Hernandez as member of Pearland City Council.
